Yes, of course! As I have always done for my PCs; the Surface Pro is no different.Are you putting antivirus software on your Pro? If so, which one do you find best?
I have used AVG free in the past and have had no problems (so far, touch wood...)
Amongst the paid one Norton is fairly good. Fairly unobtrusive and a small footprint.
Norton is a virus unto itself. It installs itself ALL OVER your computer and is remarkable difficult to get rid of.
I have had it for quite some time now and I do not see that problem whatsoever. It was also the reason I left Norton and had I not experienced that conflict with Webroot, I would not have switched back, either.I don't think that's true anymore, but it was for a long time. I dropped Norton for that reason, and never went back.
I have used many different ones.
My bit defender just expired....loved it.
For 2 weeks I have been using webroot antivirus/firewall. I think its great. I like it because it does not have features I'll never use like cloud storage, parental controls Etc. Try the trial and you will see how well it works...

If you check Frys.Com now and again, you can usually pick up security software free. Normally with a manufacturer rebate, so you pay up front, but in about 60 days, or that's been my experience, you will get your rebate. I used that for Kaspersky and again for BitDefender. I just purchased Webroot from them for $14.99 and it's licensed for 3 computers, Mac or PC (and I have both) and no rebate hassle involved. Seemed like a fair deal so... we'll see. I'll be putting it on the Surface Pro, initially anyway, to see how it does. I'm currently using the BitDefender Free product and I'm actually quite pleased with that. Hardly notice it's there (hope it is??!).
Im using it on both my surface pros with out any problems
